Abstract
Liquid crystal displays are manufactured by dropping liquid crystals on at least one of a pair of liquid crystal display substrates and then placing the pair of liquid crystal display substrates adjacent one another, with the liquid crystals therebetween. The pair of liquid crystal display substrates is pressed toward one another, to thereby discharge excess liquid crystals from between the liquid crystal display substrates. The pair of liquid crystal substrates is then sealed to retain the liquid crystals therebetween. Accordingly, by not requiring the use of injection of liquid crystals, high vacuum processing is not required. Moreover, the number of processing steps can be reduced compared to conventional liquid crystal display manufacturing methods.
